The mount only costs $29 - $42 USD at Rock Auto. Appears to be easy to replace once the drivetrain is supported.

More Information for ANCHOR 9250

Il recently installed that exact mount. I've read only really bad reviews online that the anchor mounts fail very quickly. I just installed it this month so I hope I'm still good. Just know that the mount is cheap but it doesn't have a good reputation.

Rock Auto sells several brands, I have no experience with the Anchor brand personally, just used it as an example 'cause of the nice picture.

Would shoving a white eraser between the gills of the mount give your stiffness as well as back to school savings from Staples? The answer is yes I did so and it was very stiff until they ground to a pulp. But they didnt hurt the rubber in the mount because it is softer yet stiff enough. Cheep fun for a day of hard driving. In my GFs Cobalt I could fit a whole 10mm deep socket passing right through on the lower motor mount. That is some gap these days .

that mount is nothing more than a positive stop mount...

it really only serves to stop the motor/trans movement at its limit...


with that said, the first stop to firming up my motor mounts was to fill that one with a crap load of windowweld... and it did help quite a bit...

I saw your original post. To keep vibration at minimum I was consolidation semi filling it with window weld (leaving some gaps of air).

^This.

Mine tore, I was gonna replace it but the rusted bolts broke off in the frame. So, I've driven several thousand miles without it. I'm not dead and the car still runs, so I guess it's fine.

Well, I ended up with a bum input shaft bearing. Might be because of the crooked engine? It's a pretty easy job except the bolts were on suuuuuper tight. I bought the mount for 30$ so no biggie.
